FAQ

How are points earned?

How are a tournament's points distributed?

For tournaments that don't differentiate between third and fourth place, the point distribution is as follows:1st: 50%2nd: 30%3rd/4th: 10% each

For tournaments that do differentiate between third and fourth place, the point distribution is as follows:1st: 50%2nd: 30%3rd: 15%4th: 5%

Do teams earn points, or do players?

All points are earned by players.

If a player changes teams, do those players' points go with them?

Yes.

Are the tournament's points split among the players?

No, all players receive the full amount. For example, if a team wins 75 points in a tournament, each player on the team earns 75 points.

How is the overall point total for a team calculated?

The players with the top three points on a team contribute their points towards the team's total.

How many teams receive direct invites to The International 2018 from points?

The top eight teams with the highest point totals receive direct invites to The International 2018. The other invited teams will be determined by Regional Qualifiers.

What if a team wants to change its roster after the roster lock, but prior to The International?NEW

Invites to The International (both direct and to regional qualifiers) are given to teams based on their registered roster. Teams that want to play with a roster that differs from their registered roster are ineligible for direct or regional qualifier invites to The International.

Do points determine invites to the Regional Qualifiers?

Not directly, though they may be considered as a factor when deciding invites to Regional Qualifiers.

Do points determine invites to the Majors or Minors?

No, the organization running the Major or Minor is responsible for determining that tournament's invites.

How is the number of points that a tournament is worth determined?

Points are proportional to the prize pool of the tournament, with Majors having a 1.5x multiplier.

Can a team play with subs?

Yes, though it may incur a penalty on points earned. It works as follows:

If you play with at least 4 of your registered players in the Qualifier and all 5 of your registered players in the LAN portion of the event, there is no penalty.

If you play with at least 4 of your registered players in the Qualifier and use a sub for the LAN portion of the event, the main players will earn 75% points and the sub will earn 50% points.
